Notch Working on a Space Adventure Game?

March 19, 2012 by Joe Ryan

Where no game developers have…oh, wait

So when you're playing Minecraft, what are you thinking? Probably "Okay, gotta build another house over there, maybe dig another 200-feet down to set up a strip mine near the bedrock, and then if there's time…oh, I dunno, full-size replica of the Starship Enterprise sounds pretty good."  Rock on, sir. I salute your Minecraft building ability.

But if you are a certain type of person, you might find yourself thinking "You know what this game needs? Some SPACE. Just a black void, some stars, maybe a planet or two, and a ton of crazy spaceships."

Let's be honest…nobody is thinking that. Notch, however IS interested in creating a game set in outer space. It's pretty unlikely that it would be anything like Minecraft, though.  Speaking to the BBC after the Bafta's he said: "I think I'm going to make a space game, where you're a guy on a spaceship and you have adventures in space."

He also revealed he had three projects he was working on, one of them presumably being Scrolls, which he recently won a court case pertaining to, allowing him the rights to use the word 'Scrolls' as the title. 

If he does create a space game, what kinds of things would you want to see in it? Let us know in the comments!
